As a part-time grad student with a toddler and a full time job, I’ve been trying to live a life with more mindfulness. I figured that one of the best ways to clear my mind and achieve mindfulness was to remove any unnecessary clutter in my life.

Switching over to cloth wipes instead of tissues changed the way we consume paper products. Yeah yeah, I've talked about this before. But there are new developments in the cloth wipe world that I wanted to share!

We're intrigued by the Zero Waste movement. With how much garbage we produce as humans, and how crazy full landfills and oceans are with our trash and misguided recycling, Chris and I want to make an impact by reducing our waste to zero. But life as a zero waste family can be hard.

Not sure where it started, but I realized I began to feel bad about every tissue I threw away. Every tissue box I deconstructed and stuck in the recycling bin. We made the switch to cloth wipes and we’re not looking back.
